Mechanistic Insights From Temporary Pacing in HFpEF
Sponsor: Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust
Summary
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterised by impaired diastolic function. A recent clinical trial has demonstrated multiple beneficial outcomes in HFpEF patients receiving personalised accelerated pacing from indwelling permanent pacemakers, including symptomatic improvement, objective reductions in NT-proBNP level and AF-burden. The investigators aim to determine the underlying mechanisms behind these documented effects, to investigate the acute intracardiac haemodynamic response to temporary multisite pacing in HFpEF participants and to gain further mechanistic insight with additional haemodynamic, electrical and echocardiographic data collection during temporary pacing in this cohort. This will all provide valuable information towards new potential targets of therapy.
